In this article, mixed convection heat transfer of alumina-water nanofluid in an inclined and baffled C-shape enclosure is studied. It is assumed that the flow is laminar and steady. There is no energy production, energy storage and viscous heat dissipation. Furthermore, the nanofluid is considered as a continuous, Newtonian and incompressible fluid. Governing equations are discretized by finit...

In this study, an effective local minima detection and definition algorithm is introduced for a mobile robot navigating through unknown static environments. Furthermore, five approaches are presented compared with the popular approach wall-following to pull out of enclosure namely; Random Virtual Target, Reflected Global Path Backtracking, Half Local Backtracking. The proposed mainly depend on ...

Abstract The effect of aspect ratio and baffle shape on natural convection patterns in a U-shaped cavity filled with CuO water-based nanofluid is examined detail, T-shaped attached to the cold wall. To solve coupled continuity, momentum, energy equations, finite volume method used, pressure–velocity coupling iteratively solved SIMPLE algorithm. study investigates impact Rayleigh number (10 4 –1...

The change in shape of the C. elegans embryo from an ovoid ball of cells into a worm-shaped larva is driven by three events within the cells of the hypodermis (epidermis): (1) intercalation of two rows of dorsal cells, (2) enclosure of the ventral surface by hypodermis, and (3) elongation of the embryo. While the behavior of the hypodermal cells involved in each of these processes differs drama...

This study simulates natural convection flow resulting from heat partitions in an H-shaped enclosure filled with a nanofluid using incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (ISPH) method. The right area of the is saturated non-Darcy porous media. center variable walls are kept at high-temperature Th. left and positioned low temperature Tc other adiabatic. In ISPH method, source term pressu...
